The Cunning Liliputians Living
in the Heart of Africa.

Inc Cumming LItIput1anS Living
in the Heart of Africa.
From the San Francisco Examiner.
ROnzO de Leo, who travelled many
years in Africa with DR.. Livingston,
was one who almost stood alone in the
assertion that a race of dwarfS lived in
Central Africa. In his lectures in Amer
lea he told of little people who fled
to the clefts of the rocks when the eX-
plorerS approached. G. Eugene Wolff,
who travelled many years with Stanley,
and WHO'S now in the city, gives some
queer accounts of these dwarfs. "On
the southern branches of the Congo"
said he to an Examiner reporter. Il
have seen whole villages of these Lii
putianS. They are a generous little
people who live in rude huts and clear
ground, engaging in varied sorts of
agriculture. They are also skilled hunt
erS and they make palm wine. They
are as 1.-the and supple in climbing trees
as monkeys or balloons, although they
are physically as perfect men as any of
the giant tribes thereabOut, and they
know as much. The men are not over
four feet and half high, while the
women are good deal smaller. These
tiny little men are both brave and cum
ming. They are experts with the bow
and arrow and readily bring down the
African bison, antelope and even ele-
plants with them. AS trappers of small
animals they are unsurpassed. In a
close pinch they use the lance with as
tonishing dexterity, aud an ordinary
sling in their hands is welded with
wonderful skill. The dwarfs collect the
sap of the palm, with which they make
soap. The men are smoothfaced and of a
rich mahogany color, while the hair is
short, kinky and as black as night.
Tens of thousands live on the south
branch of the Congo. They are an affa
bic, kind-hearted people, of simple
ways and devoid of vicious tendencies
to a greater degree than most semi-bar-
barrie races. The women are indus
triouS and amaiable. Very queer those
people look alongside the great swarthy
blacks further up on the Congo. The
latter are of prOdigious size, uncouth,
rude to the remotest degree and canni-
balistically inclined. The dwarfs stand
in awe of them but are so brave and
cunning that, with all the odds of ply
sique against them, the pigmies are
masters of the situation"

Millions Grave at St. Giles.

Pail Mall Gazette.
st. Giles, Cripplegate, is one of the
Oldest of London churches, and full of
tOmbS and monuments of the most inter-
esting kind. Past its door rolls the end
less noisy stream of commercial life, but
inside its doors, which are open all the
day long, there is quiet which seems
the more peaceful for its strong con-
) trast with the outside whirl. The place
toward which visitor would as mat
ter of course direct his steps before he
turns to anything else is the grave of
Milton, which is marked by white
marble slab in the floor just in front of
the corporation pew. The actual grave
is said to he under pew little further
back, and until recent years a bust of
Milton and a memorial stone were
placed above his grave against the wall.
In 1862, however, a subscription was got
up. the result of which was the present
ornamental monument facing the en-
trance to the church in which the bust
and stone are Incorporated.

Falsehood in the Face of Death.
Sacramento Record Union.
The assumption of the law that the
knowledge of certainty of speedy death
imposes upon one the obligation to speak
po r to tn g' deelar a has
experienced a rude shock in the case of
Mrs. Kegel who, while expiring, related
under the injunction that she was dying
that one Hall had beaten her with a
Ratchet. The fact was undeniably es-
tablished that her husband had beaten
her, that she knew it, and that Hall was
mile or more distant at the time she
received the wounds. The woman was
at least faithful to her faithless partner
even in death, and entirely careless of
the injury she was inflicting upon an
innocent person by dying with lie upon
her lips.

An Important Case Decided.

A very important case was decided in
the Superior Court at San Diego few days
since. The suit was brought by the San
Diego Flume Company against Lieutenant
Governor L. w. Waterman. The suit was
brought by the flume company to restrain
Waterman from dumping tailings and
mining refuse from the StonewaIl mine,
on land adjoining the Cuyamaca reservoir,
mated and bciouled the water in the reser-
voir. \ voluminous but most convincing
amount of testimony was introduced by the
defense. The defendant fled an answer
i'll which he claimed that Cuyamaca dam
was partly on his own land. He very
frankly admitted operating the mine al
luded to, but denied that the water or tall
ings discharged from the mine injured the
waters of the dam. He showed conclu-
sively that since 1870 the tailings and
other refuse from the mine had been
dumped in the same place. Several drug
gists from San Bernardino swore that four
ounces of cyanide of potassium = the
amount claimed to be used each day
when mingled with $4,000 gallons of wa
ter, would not in anyway injure the wa
ter, but that it might be drank with i'm
punity. The reading of the affidavits and
the answer of the defendant contained so
many startling revelations that the coun-
sci for the plaintiff asked for an adjourn
ment in order to file counter affidavits, but
upon the resembling of the Court in the
afternoon the plaintiffs attorney appeared
and withdrew the application for an in
junction, thus scoring great and valuable
success for Governor Waterman The
counsel for the Governor were General
Rowell, Hon. S. O. Houghton and Judge
Puterbaugh.-.S.F F. Chronicle.
